The Weekly Buzz | January 27 – February 2

How hard is it to assemble a top-notch recap of the week’s social media activity with three kids in the house? It’s very hard, but I NAILED it! This week we have a few events, some new beer, a few political statements and plenty of fun stuff, too. A buffet of beer news and shenanigans is laid out before you, and that can only mean one thing. This is The Weekly Buzz.

Mmmmm… new hops…

What do you think about breweries taking political stances like these? It seems to be happening a lot this year.
